Maybe it's a coincidence. But maybe, just maybe Mickey D's heard loud and clear when Miami New Times complained less than a month ago that we were tired of being McRib-teased to death. Whatever the reason, Ronald McDonald relented and now it's official--the McRib is coming back.

Starting November 2 the McRib will once again be available. And yes, it will only be for a limited time--twenty days to be exact. The processed pork delicacy will be pulled from menu boards again on November 22.

Still, that's plenty of time to get your fix. Or several fixes. We figure that availability of the McRib should get you right up to Thanksgiving and the rest of the holidays when a whole other slew of food options will be on your mind.
